Barcelona vs Osasuna Prediction and Betting tips | 13th March 2022

Barcelona host Osasuna at the Camp Nou in La Liga action on Sunday as they look to extend their undefeated run across all competitions to nine games.

Osasuna travel to Barcelona having bounced back from two consecutive defeats with a 1-0 win over Villarreal last week. A win here against the Catalan giants might be able to take them into the upper half of the table.

Barcelona played out a grueling goalless draw at home against Galatasaray on Thursday in the Europa League. They travel to Turkey for the second leg of the round of 16 fixtures this coming week, so Xavi might choose to rotate his squad for this routine league game.

Barcelona vs Osasuna Head-to-Head and Key Numbers

Barcelona vs Osasuna Prediction

Barcelona will have to keep in mind their away game at Galatasaray in the Europa League when they host Osasuna on Sunday. They have a two-point lead and a game in hand over fifth-placed Real Betis and can afford to field a second-choice starting XI here.

The visitors have failed to score in four of their last five league games and have failed to score in seven of their last nine away games. Irrespective of Barcelona's squad in the game, the visitors are expected to fall short of pulling an upset here.

Prediction: Barcelona 3-1 Osasuna
